Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: bpf: Reject arena frees below the arena base bpf_arena_free_pages() accepts scalar arena addresses. The runtime masks the address to the low 32 bits and reconstructs a full user address from the arena base before returning the range to the arena free tree. When the scalar value is below the low 32 bits of the arena base, full_uaddr falls below user_vm_start. The existing upper-end clipping then turns this into an out-of-range
